Projects from Sunfounder's Super Kit for Arduino - on NXP-LPC1768

I wanted to get familiar with basic eletronics components so I bought Sunfounder's Super Start Kit (Sunfounder, Amazon). I comes with a booklet describing 19 projects and an CD with the Arduino code for the projects.

Rather than use the provided Arduino code, I decided to write my own, and use the "mbed" NXP-LPC1768 board instead of the Arduino. I will also try to write two versions of the code for each project:

  • One using the ARM mbed libraries, which provide a high-level environment comparable to the Arduino SDK;
  • A bare-metal version to make sure I understand every detail of what's going on behind the scenes.

This is for my own education, but I'm making it public in the hope that someone might learn a thing or two by looking at it. Code written by me is placed under the WTFPLv2, thought I seriously doubt anyone wants to reuse it.

Requirements

  • The booklet from Sunfounder's Super Kit and the eletronics components.
  • An "mbed" NXP-LPC1768 board
  • The arm-none-eabi toolchain from GCC ARM embeded (might be packaged in your distro, otherwise just untar it and add to you path).
  • An account on https://developer.mbed.org for the version using the mbed libraries.
